We've figured out our expenses, but, the clean up is still to be decided. Let me cut to the chase here. What's it going to cost me to avoid any work with the scooper?!

Well, I don't know, I guess it's up to Renner, he will let us know if there are more of us, I'm sure. ;) I want to go to CRUFTS!!!! Load us all, the kids, the dogs, the amps, onto a plane and head on over to jolly old England!!! This is the extent of my knowledge of dog shows.:)

You have to use banjo rolls and I finally figured out that it is best to tune to open G like a banjo. Finger picking ability gives you a huge jump! I just spent six weeks trying out acoustics and finally bought the guitar I have been waiting 40 years for! A beautiful Rose wood Martin with a Sitka spruce top, made from reclaimed bridge timbers from Canada. I gigged with it twice this weekend and it plays itself. ; ) They only pay me because they're drunk and don't know better.... ; ) Oh, that is lovely, Ridic, what a nice thing to do for yourself. I was very lucky to inherit a 1975 Martin D18, mahogany back, just your standard D18, but it has a really warm tone and is so easy to play. I learned on an Ovation, and it was not only hard to play, the sound was just meh, to me anyway, so getting this Martin, especially for free, was a dream come true. I hope you really enjoy your dream guitar.:)

I hope you really enjoy your dream guitar.:) OMG! You lucky girl! Of course you realize the value of a vintage D -18! My dad had a D-28 from the fifties I played as a child. Worth over twenty K now! My main acoustic up until now has been an older ovation with a cutaway. It is great for alot of the stuff I do, but, there's just no comparing it to a high end Martin. I was really hung up between the Martins and Taylors. It was excruciating, but in the end, as you know, nothing gets better with age than a Martin and this ones going to be my lifer! I have to admit, we have over twenty guitars in the house. The boy's both got really nice instruments for Christmas and the wife finally caved and let me get this one. She has put me on a strict budget now though. I mean a Ramen noodles ( see what I did there?) every night kind of budget!

With words flowing eloquently and intently from my carefully and methodically deliberately placed fingertips, floating elegantly and seductively and ever so gently from my heart to my keyboard to my monitor, I firmly and unhesitatingly say to James Renner that you've unquestionably and somewhat amazingly blatantly managed to treat offensively and over-zealously every woman currently residing peacefully in the lovely (though unquestionably unfriendly) state of New Hampshire. At least you have me. ;) ~~~~<3 ~ John Green <3 xxxxo

Without hesitation and responding directly to the unquestionably irreverent impostor who boldly and unfairly tries to parody me by clearly and unabashedly exaggerating my sometimes wordy though unfailingly brilliant and profoundly moving prose, I live in North Carolina and not as you've mistakenly suggested in your haste Georgia.

The word "steak" within the quote gives it away - the "wonders of the Internet" statement makes it sound like this "find" is somehow special. Renner also implies that Advocate shut down her forum because of accusations against Fred, which I'm certain isn't true. Hopefully Advocate will stop by to address this issue. No, no -- I didn't shut down my forum because of accusations against Fred. I shut it down because (1) it had become pretty much inactive, no one had posted anything for some months, and (2) it cost me money to have it. Didn't see much sense in paying for something people were not going to use :)
